EPISODE 2: The International Call!

Disclaimer may be found on Chapter One

A/N: As I am an Australian writer, I haven't seen Alec or the second season of Dark Angel yet. Australia (as in everything) is so far behind America. I've read scripts, but I don't actually know Alec's character as well as most. If you don't agree with my perception, please tell me in my review.

Alec walked into Jampony, ignoring Normal. He didn't want to go home because Asha would call, and he didn't want to talk about things so he didn't go to see Joshua. He figured he'd just get a few packages and he could ride around and not have to think about what he'd done.

His cell phone rang and he feared that it would be Asha. He looked at the display and was surprised to find it reading Jondy's place. Logan or Max was properly calling to check up on him. He answered the phone and was surprised to find a voice he didn't recognise.

"Hi Alec, its Jondy." Max's sister's tone was very sweet, it was also an Australian accent

"Hey, so how's things down under?" Alec tried to keep the conversation friendly.

"Well, if you must know, they are fine. I'd love to trade flirtations but I think that's kinda weird seeing we're practically brother and sister!"

"Well there you go, but I've never met you and I can't think of you as my sis! You sound too nice to be, plus I've got enough of that with Max!" Alec was intrigued with every word Jondy said. The feelings Alec felt threw him and he didn't know why. Until then though, Alec was going to enjoy the word play between him and Jondy.

"So, your gotta be wondering why I'm calling you this late in the...is it afternoon there cause it's 5:00 in the mourning here and I haven't even slept yet? "

"Well, the question comes to mind but I don't really care either way! I'm a warm blooded male, a multiple blood type sure, but that doesn't change the fact that a beautiful female is talking to me!" Alec could see the smile on the other end of the line, one that matched his own grin.

"You don't know what I look like!"

"I just know. All the X5's are gorgeous." Alec had stepped into a quiet place and he was free to talk about anything.

"Max wanted me to call cause their heading back to the States. It turns out that someone here in Melbourne is connected to the people who are hunting you down in the States. They found out Max was here so they are now driving to Brisbane and they are gonna try and get on a cruise ship to New Zealand or Asia and then fly back to the States. So, Max wanted me to tell you their fine and that to tell Original Cindy and her 'peeps' that she'll be back soon."

"Okay, so what aren't they just flying out of Melbourne?"

"They figure it's got to be to risky so they are bypassing a couple of airports, they'll also talk to one of Logan's contacts in Brisbane! They're doing the whole Road Trip!"

"Alec, I gotta package that's got to get out by 3:00, so you better get of the phone and on the bike. Bip, Bip, Bip." Normal interrupted Alec from his pick up station. Alec held his hand over the receiver of his phone.

"Alec, I have to go. It's late and I'm tired. Maybe I'll talk to you another time!" Alec didn't want her to leave the phone, but he decided to do the gracious thing, not that the word gracious was in Alec's vocabulary.

"Yeah, we'll talk soon, I promise... It was nice talking to you!" Alec started to think about the fact that Jondy was on the other side of the world, and became depressed at that fact. He'd really like to get to know her.

"You to, Have a 'Good afternoon!'

"Goodnight'!" Jondy hung up and Alec stood up, a little happier than he was a moment earlier.
